Well done! It's a great feeling when you get back, knowing you've just run more minutes than before, isn't it? I went through a de-motivated wobble earlier today and needed inspiration- now I've seen your message and also lost 1 1/2 pounds at Slimming World - now I'm so ready to run tomorrow Keep going!

Briliant alliec, your motivation and enjoyment really shines through in your blog. If you're mad, you're in good company as I think most of us on here have caught the "bug" and are doing things we never thought we would! good luck with the rest of the programme and keep blogging!

Hi Alliec - d'you know, I'm noticing a slight addiction to this running lark!!! On the in between days I feel quite desperate to be running and, like you, as someone who has never run before, I'm totally amazed at the enjoyment and buzz I'm getting. I start week 5 tomorrow and I know it gets more difficult from hereon in BUT reading your post has made me smile as my husband is completely confuzzed at my new found addiction!! Let's keep on going - good luck
